God Has Gone Up With A Shout – SATB

Drawing from passages from Psalms 46 and 47, this anthem begins with a declamatory statement in the voices with short bitonal fanfares in the accompaniment. The main section features a flowing melody in the voices with a driving bass in the accompaniment.

Care should be taken for intonation as chromaticism is abundant, though always supported by the accompaniment. The declaratory section returns to round out the piece before closing with the up-tempo theme of “God Has Gone Up with a Shout.” Be careful in measure 63 as the rhythm for the text is diLerent from the preceding statements. High energy is maintained throughout the anthem
